What Is Silica and What Is It Used For?

Silica is a naturally occurring compound made from silicon and oxygen. Silicon is the element, while silica refers to silicon combined with oxygen, commonly as silicon dioxide. Silica is found throughout nature and has been studied for its potential role in supporting collagen and connective tissues throughout the body.

At Eidon Ionic Minerals, silica has been at the heart of our mineral line since the beginning. Our original 18 oz Liquid Silica was the product Eidon founder Rick Wagner started with in 1996, and it remains one of our most popular minerals today.

Why Is Silica Important?

Silica has been studied for its potential role in collagen formation and connective tissue health. Collagen is an important structural protein found throughout the body, including in the skin, cartilage, bones, hair, and nails.

Because connective tissues are found throughout the body, silica may be relevant for people looking to support several aspects of everyday wellness rather than focusing on just one area.

Silica may help support:

·       Healthy collagen formation

·       Bone and connective tissue health

·       Healthy cartilage

·       Hair, skin, and nail health

·       Overall structural and connective tissue health

How Is Silica Used in Eidon Products?

Our Liquid Silica is a single-mineral supplement made with silica from silicon dioxide in purified, de-ionized water. The formula contains no sugars, starches, flavors, colors, or preservatives, providing a simple way to add silica to a daily mineral routine.

We offer Liquid Silica in both regular-strength and concentrated options. Our original 18 oz Liquid Silica provides our regular-strength formula, while our 2 oz and 19 oz Silica products provide concentrated options.

These sizes and strengths let customers choose the format that best fits their lifestyle. Because Eidon Silica is a liquid mineral supplement, it can easily be added to water or another beverage according to the directions on the product label.

Silica and Joint Support

Silica is also an important ingredient in our Joint Support Mineral Blend. This formula combines silica with sulfur to provide nutritional mineral support for healthy cartilage and connective tissue.

Silica is associated with collagen and connective tissue health, while sulfur is an important component of compounds found throughout connective tissues. Together, these minerals provide a focused option for people looking to incorporate cartilage and connective tissue support into their daily wellness routine.
